We were playing around in your room before bed and then you started running and jumping.  You told me, "I am going to jump when I am running!"  I was refilling the wipes container and you started to run across the room and jump toward the end.  After the first two, I turned around and saw you getting dangerously close to the glider and shelving.

Mama: No more, Everett.  You are going to hit your head on something.  That is enough.

Everett: But, Mom!  I will just stop before I get closer!  Watch!  (run, jump, land several feet from the danger zone)  SEE!  Like that!
